I wrote this before the beginning of Season 15. I hope you enjoy. Gibbs and McGee have been gone almost one month. I still watch NCIS but I do miss the Gibbs/Abby chemistry.

GABBY story with everyone's POV.

Ducky POV:

Ducky talks to himself in the morgue. He had already finished the autopsy he had scheduled for today. "I hope Gibbs and McGee come home soon. I really wish we knew if they were dead or alive. I will continue to believe they are alive until I am proven wrong with bodies. I remember Gibbs asking me to look after Abby before he left for this last mission. I have tried to talk with her but she keeps pushing me away. I know she is trying to be strong for all of us. But I can tell she is not sleeping. I see Caf-pow cups everywhere and she is wearing more makeup every day to cover the lack of sleep. Oh Abby, please talk to me."

Jimmy is confused as he enters the morgue. "Doctor? Abby is not here? Did she sneak out on you?"

"Oh Jimmy, no, no, Abby was not here. I am just worried about her." Replies Ducky.

As Ducky heads for the door, he tells Jimmy he must go see Vance.

Jimmy's POV:

Jimmy stands with one hand on one of the autopsy tables and thinks to himself. I have been worried about Abby too. I know she has been trying to convince everyone she is OK and working extra hard to take care of Dalilah. With Dalilah pregnant with McGee's child, and McGee missing with Gibbs, Abby has been playing mother hen to help Dalilah get through the pregnancy without any problems. Since I have a child, I have tried to help be there for Dalilah. I have even been her coach since McGee is not around.

Abby comes to work every day and runs everything she can think of to find Gibbs and pretend she is OK. She reminds anyone who will listen that Gibbs and McGee are OK and will be back soon. But you can see a little more fear on her face with each passing day and I think her pigtails are beginning to get uneven too. I had hoped she was at least talking with Ducky but now. I am very worried.

Jimmy leaves autopsy to head up to the bullpen and check in with Ellie. Maybe Abby has been talking with her.

Ellie's POV:

Abby crosses the bullpen pass Ellie's desk with a 4 cardboard cup holder of Caf-pow. Ellie asks Abby. "Isn't that a lot of Caf-pow for one day Abby?"

Abby does not reply. Ellie calls out "Abby". Abby turns around. Again Ellie asks, "Isn't that a lot of Caf-pow for one day Abby?"

Abby replies, "No. I have a lot of work to get done" and walks to the back elevator.

Ellie wonders if Abby has slept at all since Gibbs disappeared just as Jimmy shows up and asks, "Ellie, has Abby been talking to you about Gibbs? She is just not herself? I know Gibbs not being here is difficult for her but I am worried and I just found out Ducky is concerned as well."

Ellie replies, "No. Abby does not say much at all anymore. She will answer questions regarding the case, etc., but never any Abby chat. It feels like we are working with a zombie. I wish I knew what to say to help her. I invited her to my place but she always has an excuse not to come over."

Ellie asks, "Does anyone know if Abby has been going home at night or is she sleeping in her lab?"

Torres POV:

Torres answers, "I have followed Abby to her car a few nights and Reeves has followed her to her car on other nights. We do know she is leaving NCIS but not sure she is going home because she turns right when she leaves and she lives left out of the parking lot."

Jimmy asks, "Why would you and Reeves follow her to her car?"

Torres says, "We thought it was what family at NCIS did. Gibbs always wanted to make sure Abby got to her car OK. I think he would call her to make sure she got home OK but Reeves and I have not made that call. We figured that must be how Abby knows what you tell Gibbs and Gibbs always knows anything you tell Abby."

Reeves POV:

Reeves pops his head up over the international desk wall and questions, "Maybe we should follow her home tonight to see where she goes. You know Gibbs will kill us if anything happens to Abby while he is away."

Everyone nods in agreement and they plan to have Reeves and Ellie follow Abby out of the parking lot tonight. Torres will follow her out to her car and text them to be ready to follow her.

Torres is hiding in the lab hallway when Abby comes out to leave for the night. She is talking to herself and he thinks she does not even notice him.

Abby POV:

Abby leaves work disappointed again. She has found nothing today to help in the search for Gibbs and McGee. She knows Dalilah will ask if there was any news today. As Abby leaves McGee and Dalilah's apartment she is at least thankful that Jimmy has been coaching Dalilah for the birth of the baby.

Abby heads to the church to light a candle for both Gibbs and McGee's safe return. She wipes away tears as she leaves the church and heads to Gibbs house. She knows it is probably wrong of her but she has been staying at Gibbs house and sleeping in the boat in the basement. The smell of sawdust and the view of the boat makes her feel closer to Gibbs.

Abby writes her daily note to Gibbs as she crawls into the boat and puts on his red hoodie.

"Dear Gibbs, it has been 46 days since Torres returned without you and McGee. We have been searching and trying to locate you. I really wish you were here. We need another angle to search. I really need you Gibbs. I have been doing my best to find you but I am going crazy. I light a candle at the church before and after work for you and McGee's safe return. I check on Dalilah daily and Jimmy has been helping. Ducky wants me to talk to him, but I know if I try I will fall apart and not be able to get any work done. Torres and Reeves have been following me to my car at night. I am sure you would be proud of them. Today Torres followed me to the car (he was hiding in the lab hallway) and then as I pulled out of the parking lot Reeves and Ellie were following me. I guess the talk at the office tomorrow will be that I am staying at your place. I really hope you do not mind. I love you Gibbs."

With that final note written, the tears start as once again Abby cries herself to sleep.

Vance POV:

The following morning Vance see Gibbs agents in a group huddle. He heads towards them to see if they have found new information on the location of Gibbs and McGee. He quickly finds out the talk is about Abby. He has noticed she is not herself and is not sure how to help when he finds out she has been staying at Gibbs house. He figures Gibbs will not mind and regroups everyone to find out if there are any new leads. As they discuss what they know, Abby comes running from the back elevator. I think I may have something. She gives the agents the info she found and they get to work. Vance is hopeful this new info will get them to the location of Gibbs and McGee.

Meanwhile in the Paraguayan jungle, Gibbs and McGee try to rest as they plan to put their new escape plan into action overnight.

McGee POV:

God, Please let this plan work. I need to get back to Delilah and the baby. I do not want her to be alone. He knows his NCIS family is there for her but still wants to be with his wife and unborn child.

A As he tries to sleep, he hears Gibbs talking in his sleep like he has heard every night they have been held prisoners. McGee had thought the first night he was calling for Shannon and Kelly but soon realized it is Abby that Gibbs dreams about and calls for each night. "I do not think he even realizes how much he loves her." thinks McGee.

Gibbs POV:

Gibbs awakes from his sleep. He knows he was calling out Abby's name again. He is surprised McGee has not asked him about it.

As he lays there he goes over the escape plan again. He needs to get McGee home to Delilah and he needs to get to Abby.

As quiet takes over the guards outside, he knows they have fallen asleep. He shakes McGee and lets him know it is time to put the plan into action. They knock out the guards and put them into one of the vehicles. As they set the truck in motion with the guards inside, they hide. Once everyone wakes up and goes after the truck, Gibbs and McGee are able to get away in another vehicle. Everyone believes they are part of the group and going to help. They are out of sight before anyone realizes what happened.

They make it back to the Church and are able to radio for help. They find out help is already in the air because they had been found on satellite earlier in the day. The chopper is re-routed and they are in the air in no time. The chopper takes them to get some medical help and then they are on a Navy cargo plane heading home. This is when McGee decides to question Gibbs on his dreams.

"Gibbs, do you know you are in love with Abby?" asks, McGee.

Gibbs replies, "I wondered when you were going to ask me about my dreams."

McGee smiles and asks, "You are going to tell her when we get home right?"

After all the time they have been prisoners and being unsure what the final outcome was going to be, Gibbs realizes it is time he tells her and makes a promise to McGee.

"I promise McGee. I will tell Abby how I feel but it might change things at the office when she does not feel the same way." Says, Gibbs.

McGee smiles, "Boss, she has been in love with you for years so I have no doubt she feels the same way about you."

With that both men lay down to get some much needed sleep.
